I have seen CA's turn these guys away in STL repeatedly. The same CA's will bend over backwards to get the other OAL guys on. There is a stigma in the industry with that group and it will not go away any time soon. It's not just the "union guys" that have the issues with them.

Just out of curiosity .. Have Gojet pilots been getting hired by Delta, JB ..ect. I'm wondering because I have friends that went there a while back and I always wondered how that would play out for them career wise? Now that some of the majors are starting to hire again.

When getting a crashpad in ORD Gojet guys ask if the pad is Gojet "friendly".
They wear their ID tags backwards while walking around the airport.
They have orange bag tags that look just like mainline UALs.
I've seen a gojetter denied a UAL 757 jumpseat.
However, I think they are getting hired at the Legacy carriers because most of those guys do not understand who or what Gojet is.

Fly4Michelle, don't listen to UNDguy. Things at G7 are not good, the old threads are just as valid today as when they were first written. As for Compass being a good alternative for G7, well the same guy that owns TSA and G7 now owns Compass too, so you can probably guess as to how morale is there.
I will tell you not to go to G7, but make sure you do your research first. There are a lot of valid reasons to avoid that place, and when former TSA people furloughed from UAL were offered a job there, many declined. Some times a paycheck is not worth what you will experience while trying to get it. This industry is starting to show a turn around, I will suggest that you bide your time as more airlines are starting to hire again.
Good luck in your decision.

I just want people to know it's not fabricated rumors. It DOES happen. I've seen it. The GoJets jumpseater wasn't welcome in the flight deck Jumpseat.

Hey can someone answer something for me? If a Gojets pilot turns his ID around, how do you know that he is Gojets? And doesn't he know that you know thus defeating the purpose?

Air Willie, you know it is a G7 pilot by his/her uniform. The Hat brass is a Chromed version or the US airways reef, but it has a GoJet bar rather than the Airways flag, the wings are also a generic Chrome with an oval between the wings and GoJet stamped into the oval. Also their safety badge backer is yellow(I'll refrain from the yellow jokes)Trans States uses Orange for theirs.
